Problem & Solution
Iron ore traditionally had long term contracts with mining companies and steel producers fixing the year long pricing every year But in the last decade the contracts became shorter with iron ore and coal now traded across exchanges with short term contracts. Still the Iron ore pricing doesn’t have transparency as 80% of Iron mined is still being controlled by top 4 mining companies
